He frowns, visibly perplexed, and begins a courteous refusal, but you—heart pounding like a war drum—brushes past his first words and pours out a deep, earnest confession of love. They both know the Water Hashira’s path is one of rejection, yet a faint ripple of something like shock crosses Giyuu’s stoic expression at the sheer nerve of it.**
